◎ Aussehen

Deep opaque black with a tan head of moderate density that settles to a thin ring. The body is viscous and glossy, with excellent lacing that clings to the glass. Carbonation is restrained, befitting the beer's full-bodied character.

◌ Aroma

Roasted coffee and dark chocolate dominate the nose, supported by rich cocoa powder notes and a subtle char from the bourbon barrel aging. Beneath lies a whisper of caramel sweetness and vanilla oak, with no hop aromatics asserting themselves—the focus remains entirely on roasted malts and wood.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with bold roasted coffee and bittersweet chocolate, followed by a silky, oat-derived mouthfeel that carries caramel and vanilla notes mid-palate. The 45 IBUs provide a measured bitterness that complements rather than dominates, while charred oak and a hint of bourbon warmth linger without harshness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and warming, with bourbon heat gently building and fading over several minutes. Dark chocolate and roasted grain fade slowly, leaving a slightly drying cocoa aftertaste.

Etwas wärmer als erwartet. 10–13°C lässt die gerösteten Malz-, Schokoladen- und Kaffeenoten vollständig entfalten.

Der Klassiker — vielseitig, angenehm zu halten und hält das Bier kühl. Kein Schnickschnack: nur das Bier.
